AMERSHAM swimmers collected 15 medals from their second Berks and South Bucks ASA Championships outing last weekend at Maidenhead.

And they outstripped local rivals Wycombe by nine. The Wycombe side collected six medals.

Captain Phil Jordan was the Amersham star. He took a night off studying for A'levels to record 200m backstroke wins in the 17-plus age group and men's senior championship trophy.

Michael Lemos set a new club record in the 100m butterfly on his way to gold. The youngster then took gold in the 200m backstroke.

Amersham took a one-two-three in the ten-year 100m butterfly final. Hannah Shaw took pole position, with Andrea Poore second and Chloe Bailey third.

Meanwhile, Wycombe's Richard Bevan, returning from a three year injury enforced break, claimed his first county open championship win with a 50m freestyle gold.

Simon Burnett took gold and bronze in the U17 and open 50m freestyle final, adding to his silver in the 16-years 200m backstroke.
